Debbie: Say No To CCA!

Why is FL Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz siding with the Corrections Corporation of America and not her constituents in Southwest Ranches? 98% of her constituents DO NOT want a new for-profit immigrant detention center!

IMMIGRANTS ARE NOT FOR SALE

We call on Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-20) to WITHDRAW her current endorsements for CCA’s project.

The Obama Administration announced a change in the priorities for detentions and deportations, to focus on real national security concerns, not on separating parents from their children or deporting DREAMers who are only seeking a better future.

It is time for ICE to stop the immigrant money making machine and tell CCA to GO AWAY from Southwest Ranches.

THIS PETITION IS NOW CLOSED - WE REACHED OUR GOAL!!! But feel free to leave your comment!

    Prisons should not be run by private, for-profit corporations. That is just DEAD WRONG!

    FOR PROFIT is ALWAYS a disaster costing taxpayers more and more for less and less.

    We are a nation with a history of immigration and immigrants. If the indigenous peoples who were here before us had put our fore fathers in prison none of us would be here today. Immigrants contribute to the economy and well-being of our communities. Why are we hiring a for-profit private corporation to imprison immigrants? It does not make sense.

    Making correctional institutions privately owned leads to abuses and corruption. If the government run institutions are not doing a good job, it’s up to our representatives to fix it.

    Things like this is why I no longer contribute to nationwide Dem. outfits like the DNC and DCCC. For example, the DCCC recently contributed to “Democratic” legislators who voted for “let women die” legislation. Contribute only to really progressive individual candidates or to outfits that support only such candidates.
